<div="message"> Hotspot information will return soon. I'm away for the weekend.</div>
I have issues keeping a VHF antenna in the trees, so I mostly just use my HT's through a Hotspot. I used to have a couple of them, including a fancy full-duplex for actual Tier2 DMR; but...like the rest of the shack, they all got sold for a few bucks. I did manage to keep ahold of my first Zumspot and a RPi. At some point I'll get the mobile setup back in the car; which is just a magmount hooked to a Mirage BD-35 amp driven by the FT2D. That amp isn't suitable for DMR due to timeslots and I sold my Kenwood D74.

I did manage to snag my mixed WAS in 2021, my WAC sometime back in 2017, and after years of trying and missing the event; got the full sweep of 13 Colonies (all 13 and 3 bonus stations). It was 13 Colonies that made me want to get extra just to have better luck nabbing GB13COL. In the end...I don't think I had to use any of the extra portions to get it. But hey...any reason to upgrade is a good one.
